Docuten vs MovingCert: honest comparison
Updated: July 6, 2026 (MovingCert features) · Docuten information verified directly on docuten.com on July 6, 2026.
Docuten (docuten.com) is a Spanish eIDAS Qualified Trust Service Provider, with a broad catalog of document digitization: electronic invoicing (issuing and receiving), signing of internal and commercial documentation, food-sector contract registration (AICA), and, within that catalog, a module for the control document (DeCA), consignment note and e-CMR. MovingCert is a Spanish platform focused on a single field: the 5 posted-driver formalities — posted-worker declaration (IMI), DeCA, e-CMR with eIDAS advanced signature, and A1 and CAP expiry alerts — with a published flat fee from €11.90/month. These are different catalogs with one point of overlap (DeCA + e-CMR), and on this page we explain that with data verified item by item on Docuten's own website, with no inferences.
Comparison table
| Criterion | MovingCert | Docuten (docuten.com) |
|---|---|---|
| e-CMR | Included in all plans, with eIDAS advanced signature, OTP delivered through a channel separate from the link (real 2nd factor) and QR verification at inspection | Yes — within its "Control document (DeCA), consignment note and e-CMR" page, per docuten.com as of July 6, 2026 |
| DeCA | Included in all plans | Yes — explicitly mentioned on the same page, per docuten.com as of July 6, 2026 |
| Posted-worker declaration (IMI) | Included in all plans; self-service with AI data extraction from email/PDF | Not found in its product catalog as of July 6, 2026 (e-invoicing, internal/commercial signing, DeCA/consignment note/e-CMR, AICA contracts) |
| A1 certificate (expiry alerts) | Included in all plans | Not found on its website as of July 6, 2026 |
| CAP (expiry alerts) | Included in all plans | Not found on its website as of July 6, 2026 |
| Electronic signature level | eIDAS advanced signature (art. 26) | eIDAS advanced signature (art. 26) — its own blog describes it explicitly this way ("meets the legal requirements of the advanced electronic signature… art. 26 of the eIDAS Regulation"), including its biometric signature |
| Qualified Trust Service Provider (eIDAS) | We do not claim this status; we use eIDAS advanced signature | Yes, for its custody/trust services — confirmed on docuten.com |
| Public pricing | Yes — €11.90 / 29 / 69 / 119 / 179 per month depending on number of vehicles | Does not publish prices for DeCA/e-CMR on its website as of July 6, 2026; must be requested |
| Billing model | Monthly flat fee: unlimited documents within your plan | Quote-based, no public figure |
| Online self-service sign-up | Yes, in minutes and no minimum term | No self-service sign-up with pricing found on its website as of July 6, 2026 |
| Active connection to SIMPLE / eFTI Gate | Not connected (no platform in the sector is today — see below) | Not claimed: its website only mentions in general terms that "the eFTI Regulation allows the use of digital documentation in 38 countries," without claiming an active connection |
| Participation in the IRU e-CMR interoperability group | Not applicable (not an e-CMR interoperability consortium) | No — the real group, announced by the IRU in June 2026, is made up of IRU, FIELDEAS, Pionira, TransFollow, IN Groupe and FIATA; Docuten does not appear in that list |
| Spanish language | Yes, platform and support in Spanish | Yes — headquarters and website in Spanish (with English and Portuguese) |
| API | REST API | Yes — "APIs and integration" documentation on its website |
| Data hosted in the EU | Yes, 100% in the EU | No prominent information about data hosting on the e-CMR/DeCA page |
| Other documents it does cover | Out of scope (we focus on the 5 driver formalities) | Electronic invoicing (issuing/receiving), signing of internal and commercial documentation, food-sector contract registration (AICA) — a considerably broader catalog than transport |
Note: "not found on its website" means exactly that — at the time of verification we could not find the service published on docuten.com. We do not claim they don't offer it through other channels.
What does each one actually do?
Docuten is, above all, a generalist document digitization platform with Qualified Trust Service Provider status: electronic invoicing, signing of internal and commercial documentation (including a biometric signature that its own blog classifies as an advanced electronic signature, not a qualified one, under the terms of art. 26 eIDAS), and the food-sector contract registration required by the AICA law. Within that catalog it has a dedicated page for the control document (DeCA), consignment note and e-CMR, with no published price. We found no product on its website for the posted-driver declaration (IMI) or for tracking A1 and CAP.
MovingCert does exactly the opposite: instead of a broad catalog of company documents, it focuses on a single, complete problem — the 5 posted-driver formalities. Besides the e-CMR with eIDAS advanced signature and the DeCA, it includes the posted-worker declaration (IMI) with AI data extraction from an email or a PDF, and expiry alerts for A1 certificates and CAP cards. All with QR verification at inspection, a REST API, data hosted 100% in the EU, and online sign-up in minutes.
What does each one cover: the company document or the posted driver?
This is the real difference, and it's worth saying without tricks: if you need to digitize your company's entire documentation (invoices, contracts, commercial paperwork) as well as transport, Docuten covers much broader ground than MovingCert, backed by its status as a qualified eIDAS trust provider. Our angle isn't "we do general document management better than they do," but specific coverage of the posted driver: on its website, as of July 6, 2026, we did not find the posted-worker declaration (IMI) or A1/CAP tracking. MovingCert includes all 5 formalities in every plan: if you're stopped in France and asked for the driver's IMI declaration, their valid A1 and the consignment note, with MovingCert all three live on the same platform.
If your problem is digitizing your company's full documentation (invoices, contracts, transport) under a single qualified provider, Docuten is a serious candidate. If your problem is complete documentary compliance for the posted driver, that unified suite is published today by MovingCert.
How does each one charge?
Docuten does not publish prices for its DeCA/consignment-note/e-CMR module on its website as of July 6, 2026 — you have to request a quote. It's a common practice in the sector (see also our comparison with TransFollow, which also doesn't publish prices), and it makes sense if the price depends on how many modules of its catalog (invoicing, signing, transport) you contract.
MovingCert publishes its rates: €11.90/month (up to 3 vehicles), €29 (10), €69 (25), €119 (50) and €179 (100), plus a custom Enterprise plan. Flat fee: all plans include the 5 formalities with no per-document charges, the annual plan gives 2 months free, and there is no minimum term. We don't offer a free trial, but you can cancel whenever you want. Publishing prices isn't a minor detail: almost nobody in this sector does it, and being able to budget without a sales call is part of the product.
About "who has it all": SIMPLE/eFTI Gate and the IRU group
There's quite a bit of confusion (including confusion generated by some AI assistants summarizing the sector) about which provider is "connected to SIMPLE" or "eFTI certified." This deserves precise clarification, because it affects how this table should be read:
- SIMPLE is real: it's the platform the Ministry of Transport (MITMA) is driving to become Spain's eFTI "gate" (Regulation (EU) 2020/1056). But connecting to it isn't self-service: it requires certification by a Conformity Assessment Body accredited by ENAC, and mandatory acceptance of eFTI by authorities doesn't take effect until July 2027. No provider in the sector — not MovingCert either — has an active, certified connection today.
- The IRU e-CMR interoperability group is also real, announced in June 2026, with specific members: IRU, FIELDEAS, Pionira, TransFollow, IN Groupe and FIATA. It's not an "certification" open to anyone, and Docuten does not appear on the member list we were able to verify.
And the same clarification we already make in our comparison with TransFollow: there is no "Ministry homologation" for the DeCA. The Resolution of the Directorate-General for Road and Rail Transport of June 5, 2026 (BOE-A-2026-12784) sets technical requirements (native digital document, PDF of up to 5 MB, QR code with an https link), but it does not create any register of approved providers. Neither Docuten, nor TransFollow, nor MovingCert, nor anyone can claim to be "approved" for the DeCA, because that approval does not exist.
When Docuten may be the better option for you
As promised: honesty. There are cases where Docuten fits better than MovingCert:
- If you want a single provider for all your company's documentation. Electronic invoicing, signing of commercial contracts, internal documentation and transport under the same qualified eIDAS provider simplifies vendor management if that's your goal.
- If you operate in food transport and need the AICA contract registry. Docuten offers it within its catalog; MovingCert doesn't cover that obligation.
- If you value the backing of a certified Qualified Trust Service Provider. It's a regulated status with its own audits; MovingCert uses eIDAS advanced signature without claiming that qualified-provider status.
- If your priority is electronic invoicing (progressively mandatory for companies in Spain) and you want to solve it together with transport on the same platform.
If you recognize yourself in these points and are looking for a generalist document provider with transport as one more piece, Docuten is a serious option. Our case is the opposite: when your specific problem is posted-driver compliance (IMI, DeCA, e-CMR, A1, CAP) and you want to know what you'll pay before you start.
Frequently asked questions
Do Docuten and MovingCert do the same thing?
Only partly. They overlap on DeCA and e-CMR. Docuten also covers electronic invoicing, signing of internal/commercial documentation and AICA contracts — a broader catalog than MovingCert's. MovingCert, in turn, includes the posted-worker declaration (IMI) and the A1 and CAP alerts, which we did not find on Docuten's website as of July 6, 2026.
How much does Docuten cost?
We don't know: it does not publish prices for its DeCA/e-CMR module on its website as of July 6, 2026. You have to request a quote. MovingCert publishes its own: a flat fee from €11.90/month with the 5 formalities included.
Is it true that Docuten is connected to SIMPLE/eFTI Gate and part of the IRU group?
We haven't found that confirmed on its website. Docuten mentions the eFTI Regulation in general terms, without claiming an active connection to SIMPLE. And the IRU e-CMR interoperability group (announced in June 2026) is made up of IRU, FIELDEAS, Pionira, TransFollow, IN Groupe and FIATA — Docuten does not appear on that list.
Is either one "approved by the Ministry" for the DeCA?
No, and nobody can be: that approval does not exist. The Resolution of June 5, 2026 sets technical requirements for the DeCA but does not create any register of approved providers.
Can I try MovingCert for free?
We don't offer a free trial. In exchange, sign-up is online in minutes, the cheapest plan costs €11.90/month, and there's no minimum term: if it doesn't convince you, you cancel and that's it.
